Where has the time gone?

I was caught in a time warp on Thursday night. I was invited to attend the Journey, Foreigner, and Night Ranger Concert with Julie Wheeler. It was at the Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy so we flew to Salt Lake and made a night of it. We found our seats and started people watching. This crowd was interesting to say the least. All ages, sizes, and shapes were there. The most amazing thing to see was the concessions offered just like a sporting event.


Night Ranger was the first one up. They sounded just the same as the last time I saw them back in the 80's. They still jumped around the stage maybe they weren't as old I thought.


Journey was the last group and they were awesome. If you couldn't see the stage (like me) the big screens had all the action. The lead singer was amazing his range and sounding like Steve Perry and then changing it up for newer songs. Even from a distance you couldn't tell the difference.



Concessions Kettle Corn, Cotton Candy, Snow Cones, and Beer. What a combination.



The only thing stranger was the crowd. They were pretty wild.



We had a great time and enjoyed the music. However, 5:00 in the morning came really fast for Julie to catch her flight home. I waited for Dave and the kids to arrive and start our fun weekend.
